4.0 out of 5 stars Unusual Indian cookery book, 13 Jan 2001

By	K. Fearon "krissf" (York, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'd only ever experienced Hansa's by visiting the restaurant in Leeds so was delighted to get this as a present.

It's beautifully designed, illustrated and produced with a lot of background information about Hansa and her family, Gujarati cuisine, storing and using spices and cooking techniques. Plus it includes information about how spices can enhance your health.

The recipes themselves cover many of the dishes on the restaurant menu plus some new ones. Some are simple enough for a beginner while others are a bit more complex, but the recipe instructions are clear and thorough with lots of useful tips for using leftovers or changing the ingredients. So if you want to try Gujarati food but you can't travel to Leeds, this is a great place to start.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting introduction to Gujarati food, 27 April 2009

By	K. Finch (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

On the plus side, the food I've made following Hansa's recipes is delicious and very easy - the kind of food you can cook every day without having to slave for hours over a hot stove. The sections on Hansa's background, Gujarati eating and tips on using up leftovers were particularly good.
I would have liked to see more space devoted to 'main course' type dishes - there are 8 'main course' vegetable dishes and 6 dals compared to 7 starters/snacks, 5 salads and 6 lassis and teas (most useful if this is your first Indian cookbook) plus rice dishes, desserts, pickles/chutneys and 'specialities'.
The book as a whole could do with some rigorous editing - there are quite a lot of irritating inconsistencies or errors, such as interchangeable Gujarati, Hindi and English terms, inconsistent spelling, incomplete glossary, etc. Recipes are for varying numbers of servings (2 - 8)and one or two include ingredients that are not mentioned in the actual recipe steps.
Overall, yummy food and worth buying as an addition to your veggie recipe book collection unless you're OCD like me, in which case you'll be itching to get out the red pen every time you use it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Indian Party Food at its best, 18 Aug 2007

By	Ms. Dj Woodhall-james "ziggyd" (York, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was lucky to go to the launch party for this book, when lots of the mouth watering recipies were served. This is definately not your average indian cookbook, unless you have been to Hansa's in Leeds, there will be lots of new goodies for you to try. Be adventurous, these recipies all work, Hansa has been cooking them for 20 years so they are bound to work. Buy this book if only for the Shrikand and Carrot Halwa recipies, the best Indian sweets I have ever tasted! There is only one glaring omission, the recipie for Chilli Paneer, oh well I guess I will have to keep going back to Hansa's in Leeds!
